Sweater and Skirt Combo

I originally bought this skirt with the intention of wearing it with my white tie-neck blouse to a health conference in September but when I got it home, it felt way too short to wear to a professional event. Looking at it now, I probably would’ve been fine but I’m really loving how good it looks with the tights and booties, especially with the tapered front. And my chunky, slightly oversized sweater makes it feel perfect for winter.

I wore this outfit to date night. We had dinner, with the nicest server ever (seriously, she was so nice and smiled so much and I just loved her), and then came home to watch a movie in the comfort of our own living room. This is what happens as you get older; you prefer watching movies on your couch so you can take snack and potty breaks on your terms. Oh my, I just realized I’m turninng into my parents!

I think the texture from the sweater and skirt, along with the geometric pattern on the skirt takes this outfit from potentially dull to really interesting.

I have a Master of Public Health (MPH) degree with a concentration in health behavior, a B.A. in Psychology, and a minor in Hispanic Studies. I work in the fundraising department of a women’s health nonprofit. Among other things, I’m a wife, a new mother, a furbaby mommy, a sushi eater, a coffee drinker, a wine lover, and a reproductive rights warrior.
